Dehydrogenation of Glycerol for CO 2 Reduction in One‐Pot Production of Lactic Acid and Formic Acid with Ru‐MACHO

Abstract Dehydrogenation of glycerol for CO 2 reduction can simultaneously produce lactic acid (LA) and formic acid (FA) products with high added value, greatly improving the atomic economy and the actual benefits. We report that Ru‐MACHO (regR) as a catalyst can satisfy the requirements of parallel...

Summary:Abstract Dehydrogenation of glycerol for CO 2 reduction can simultaneously produce lactic acid (LA) and formic acid (FA) products with high added value, greatly improving the atomic economy and the actual benefits. We report that Ru‐MACHO (regR) as a catalyst can satisfy the requirements of parallel reaction at the same time. The designed experiment confirms that under the conditions of 200 °C and 48 h, 3 mg Ru‐MACHO (regR) catalyst can obtain FA and LA yields of 40 % and 45 %, respectively. The possible reaction path of glycerol dehydrogenation for CO 2 reduction is confirmed by the isotopic tracer technique and nuclear magnetic resonance analysis.
